Leia Hosts "Fairy Garden Thursday"

Today we're excited to unveil our new Fairy Garden. Although we felines didn't get our paws dirty, and we couldn't supervise directly, we WERE consulted about each step. Trust me, furriends, there was a LOT of discussion about :

"If I Were a Visiting Fairy, What Would *I* Want?"

** we neither believe nor disbelieve in the existence of small mystical creatures (or big ones) HOWEVER it seems prudent to not offend them if they are in fact out there.

The Interwebz wasn't that much help, as there are many differing opinions on their possible needs and wants. We decided that fairies are most likely very wild creatures, most comfortable with as natural a setting as possible.

As we all know, hoomins tend to think about what they want instead of what kittehs, I mean fairies, might want. We considered such impawtant questions as houses (Mom said some houses she saw in the store didn't even have a way for them to get into it! Honestly, what are they supposed to do, sit on the roof? Typical hoomin thoughtlessness, if you ask us).

Also, we didn't have to debate long to decide they probably would like some shiny stuff, so we added some light blue reflective pebbles. And of course, tiny chairs to sit on. A toadstool for ambiance. The cheerful daisy, however, is fake, from a craft store. We told you Mom was awful at gardening. (it might not even BE a daisy, she just thought it was.)

So here it is.

We actually do like it, and hope that any Wee Folk who might flutter by

Oh my mouses! You have a fairy garden, too? Well technically, we don't have ours yet but the peep saw someone making one on FB and she was all, "GOTTA DO THAT, FOR SURE!" That's her 'project' for this year. I'm thinking it might be completed by 2020 or something if she keeps to her usual schedule. MOUSES!
